Description

A team of songwriters based worldwide and at the height of their own scenes,
who met through working on the Indian Rock band Skyharbor, White Moth Black
Butterfly have joined forces to create their second album, ‘Atone’. Singer
Daniel Tompkins began WMBB as a creative outlet aside from writing for UK
progressive rock band TesseracT, indulging in his other musical influences from
Massive Attack, Enigma, Sigur Ros, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Tool, Dredg and
Thrice. After growing Skyharbor as one of India's biggest rock bands with
songwriter Keshav Dhar, including taking the stage with acts such as Lamb of God
and Deftones, the pair collaborated on Tompkins' new Contemporary Pop project
with progressive and experimental music at its heart.

‘Atone’, the new album from WMBB, is masterfully built on organic,
textured and cinematic sounds, with two opposing themes of loss and hope.
Tompkins explains – “Whilst songs like "Tempest” and “Atone” focus on
faith and forgiveness, others like “Rising Sun” and “An Ocean Away”
linger on love and nostalgia; throwing the listener into a bygone world of
having less and caring more. The front cover artwork captures the beauty of
nature and the harsh realities of life: power and dominance. White Moth Black
Butterfly represents that very same struggle."
